Fertility Spell
You will need modeling clay, a little cup of water, a green candle, as well as some figs, a yam, seedpods, flowering plants, and some patchouli oil. Go to your sacred place and visualize a beautiful green circle of light all about you. Place your figs, yam, flowers, and seeds on your altar. Place 3 drops of patchouli into your palms and rub them together briskly. Begin to feel yourself growing, bringing new life to projects, or being able to bring new life into this world. Rub the candle between your hands, avoiding the wick. As you do this see your energy rising and readying itself to be directed. Place your candle in its holder and light it. Feeling this growing, strengthening energy chant three times:
Mother Goddess, I call on thee
to bring me fertility
Let all take root, seed, and sprout
Let new life be all about
For this wish, bring me your power
Let my dream come to flower
Let my life bring to birth
This dream I ask, in reverence, in mirth
And by the power of three by three
As I do will so mote it be.
With the clay and water fashion a little figure of a goddess with a swollen belly. As you do this, feel very sure that your dreams will be given life by the Mother Goddess. Place the figure in the candlelight, amidst the flowers and the seeds and all the beautiful symbols of fertility you have gathered. Take a few minutes to affirm to yourself quietly and with deep belief, that your dreams will come to be and that you and your life are fertile, strong, and rich with possibilities. You may wish to do some writing in your Book of Shadows and Light. Blow out your candle blowing your wishes to the Universe. Then see the green circle all about you shimmer and dissolve back into the fabric of the Universe.
